AQA GCSE Physics: Particle Model of Matter

4 Well Structured Lessons on AQA Physics Particle Model of Matter. Suitable for the GCSE Physics and GCSE combined science specification

The following topics are included

Lesson 1: Changes of State

1. Describe how, when substances change state, mass is conserved
2. Describe energy transfer in changes of state
3. Explain changes of state in terms of particles.

Lesson 2: Density

1. To use the particle model to explain the different states of matter and differences in density
2. To calculate density, mass or volume using the density equation

Lesson 3: Internal Energy

1. Describe the particle model of matter
2. Understand what is meant by the internal energy of a system
3. Describe the effect of heating on the energy stored within a system

Lesson 4: Specific Heat Capacity

1. Describe the effect of increasing the temperature of a system in terms of particles
2. State the factors that are affected by an increase in temperature of a substance
3. Calculate specific heat capacity
